“Christmas is a necessity. There has to be at least one day of the year to remind us that we're here for something else besides ourselves.”

A Recycled Quote of the Week Classic...

"This Holiday Season...

Mend a quarrel. Seek out a forgotten friend. Dismiss suspicion, and replace it with trust. 
Write a love letter. Share some treasure. Give a soft answer. Offer encouragement.
​ 
Manifest your loyalty in word and deed. Keep a promise. Find the time. Forgive an enemy.
​ 
​ 

Listen. Apologize if you are wrong. Try to understand. Flout envy. Examine your demands
​ 
on others. Think first of someone else. Appreciate. Be kind; be gentle. Laugh a little.
​ 
Laugh a little more.
​ 
Deserve confidence. Take up arms against malice. Decry complacency. 
Express your gratitude. Welcome a stranger. Gladden the heart of a child. 
​ 
Take pleasure in the beauty and wonder of the earth. Speak your love. Speak it again.Speak it still once again."
